Within the midnight stars is where I choke the sky,
I'm bleeding with madness and I see the devil's eye,
Still,
I want a life,
Tired of being sacrificed in the time I should fight,
Starvation of self love,
Now is the time,
Tonight is the night.
Tonight, I choke the sky.
I squeeze what life is left of mine,
I feed from a bottomless pit of lies,
I breathe with chills running down my spine,
Tonight I cry,
Tonight I choke the sky.
I hope from the belly of the beast, to the glory of the gods,
I pray to the child in me, to the man I was born to be,
I sit alone beneath shards of broken mirrors, reflecting my power and belief,
One day I will roam night and day, proud of being me and feeling relief.
I bare my soul to the unknown, for I am a chameleon of the night,
I feel like I have a heart of stone, for I am a wanderer of a tortured mind,
Dressed in old wounds, slashed upon my feathered past,
The scars that I hold, a story bestowed, but the memories won't last.
I squeeze what life is left of mine,
I feed from a bottomless pit of lies,
I breathe with chills running down my spine,
Tonight I cry,
Tonight I choke the sky.
Tonight is mine...
